I thought for sure they'd put an Aladdin-themed character meal in there.

I thought that for years, but because it was managed by a third party I guess that's one of the reasons why they never did, like a heroes meal with Aladdin and others. They certainly could do this now, but so far no signs of Disney wanting to operate it. such a shame.

On the latter point, though, they seem to have had trouble even filling the lagoon-side restaurant.

Hopefully they can find a way to revive it that brings people in.

I really enjoyed Spice Road Table. I haven’t been since Disney took over the pavilion, but from what I can see the menu looks really watered down now. There was a great selection of Moroccan food and we always enjoyed it.

Would it really be that difficult to bring the wonderful people of Morocco back to have a restaurant with wonderful and tasty cuisine? So delicious! I enjoy eating at a greek restaurant here and it is very similar and great food!

The company who operated it went bust, so Disney brought it back in house.

Although I have to disagree with your assertion that Greek food and Moroccan food is similar. Moroccans use tangines for traditional cooking and couscous is a staple accompaniment.

From the web...Moroccan cuisine shares several similarities with other Mediterranean cuisines.

I agree there’s a similarity in terms of the ingredients and general diet.

I just don’t find the actual dishes much alike. Moroccan dishes that do contain meat for example often use it on the bone whereas I’ve not a Greek dish that does that. And Moroccan dishes seem to use more spices.

Now I’m hungry! 😆

Can't believe I was there Tuesday a week ago. We ate at Spice Road Table because a friend of mine loves Mediterranean food. We loved it!
